On Sunday I went out to the front of the house with plans to drag the garden hose out and map out where the curved beds should be. I just couldn't do it! I spent a good 20 minutes strolling up and down the sidewalk in front of my house, staring at the grass, trying to tell myself that it's not a big deal to just move the hose around until something looks like where a flower bed should go. I don't have a creative bone in my body. Not only that, I'm scared to even try to be creative.
I was paralyzed with fear! I am not confident enough to put a damn water hose down, make a decision, and start digging. So, I snapped a pitcture, came in the house and started drawing on it. I need therapy!
I poured my heart out about this to GB today. She said what she always says, "gina, it's only grass! It will grow back!" After I whined enough she finally agreed to come help me decide where the beds could go. I just love that girl!In the meantime, I was trying to figure out what the house would look like with white trim and black porch railing. I am also considering shutters on the left and right windows and a large planter box under the big window in the center. What do you think that would look like?
